I honestly figured it wasnt an issue. People should have ID. Its just a thing that you should have.

It isnt that hard to get ID, it cant possibly be when probably 99% of people have it. I know he cherry-picked statistics about some random backwater registry office in the middle of nowhere where its difficult to get ID but I would guess the reason he didnt give out the location and hours of every other registry office in the country is because they would invalidate his 'hard to get ID' point.

Its not even about fraud or whatever, I just found that 'requiring ID' being akin to outrageously discriminating against huge demographics of low-income ethnics to be a bit of a ridiculous leap.

If you're an adult, ie. of the age to vote, you should probably be able to identify yourself.

It deosnt seem to be this huge barrier that its being made out to be.
